Concubine Chongxi: Binding the Medicine Jar to the Master

Chapter 274 A Blessing in Misfortune, Red and Blue Corpse Fruit

After hearing Yufeng's words, Baili Jiuge frowned, smelling the confusion, and couldn't help sighing: "If Mo Li knows, he must concentrate on finding out the matter, and he will say that he is duty-bound."

She looked at the road ahead, opened her eyes wide, and carefully looked around to see if there were any signs of epiphyllum patterns around her, and just like that, she rode her horse around to the path with Yufeng.

The moon is bright.

Not far away, in a densely forested area, on a mossy mountain wall, there is a natural cave.

Perhaps this cave is too old and deep, at first glance, it is so dark that it makes one's spine chill, and the cold wind blows from the cave, mixed with a faint smell of blood, and a weird rotten smell that cannot be described.

In the cave, suppressed growls came out frequently, which seemed to be the sound of struggling to the extreme, but they were still trying to suppress it.

Mo Li's weak panting, the double yin and yang curses in his body, like countless spiders running across the meridians and blood vessels, continuously secrete highly poisonous cold liquid, corroding his thousands of collaterals and veins with extreme pain.

cold, painful.

When these two feelings were mixed to the extreme, he didn't even know that there was any colder and more painful torture in this world.

The low coughing sound still flowed out despite his tenacious patience.The blood coughed up from the lungs had formed a piece of ice before it hit the ground.

Thinking about being in the inn in Shanren Town just now, he took a nap for a while due to fatigue and weakness, and when he woke up, he found that Jiu Ge was not by his side, so he couldn't help worrying.

Just as he was about to look for her, the double yin and yang curse suddenly broke out, and he spurted a mouthful of blood onto the pillow.

At this time, Yufeng came back, and he asked Yufeng to find Jiuge quickly, while he left the inn and searched all the way to the cave.

Yes, he must suppress the Yin Yang spell alone.If he was still in the inn, when Yufeng found Jiuge back, how uncomfortable would Jiuge feel when he saw his embarrassed appearance?

He couldn't make Jiu Ge feel bad, for Jiu Ge and for the baby in her belly.

The corners of his lips were raised weakly, and Mo Li smiled helplessly. This kind of pain has been with him since he was six years old, and he has long been used to it.

bear with it.

If he endured it, he could go back to the town to join Jiuge.

Mo Li dug on the rock wall with one hand, forced himself to stand firm, and adjusted his internal force...

However, at this moment, there were some rustling sounds from the depths of the cave, like... a flock of birds flapping their wings.

There were waves in the bottom of the eyes, the experience of traveling the rivers and lakes in the past, let Mo Li already know what those things are without looking back.

Laughing at himself, why did he ignore it?It's night, the bat is about to wake up.

The sound of flapping wings was getting closer and closer, densely packed vampire bats flew out from the depths of the cave, with crimson bodies and dark green eyes.

They locked their targets and rushed towards Mo Li one after another.

Immediately afterwards, on the tea-white clothes, there were tiny wounds, followed by bloodstains, which spread more and more densely...

Mo Li couldn't hold back, being sucked blood by the bats together, it wasn't as painful as imagined, it was just a little numb.

Just when Mo Li was about to leave, the Yin-Yang Curse of the chills in his body suddenly faded away. Mo Li was slightly surprised, and quickly adjusted his inner breath, and slowly suppressed it. Although he could no longer completely control the Yin-Yang Curse as before, he gradually Yes, but he felt some warmth flowing into his body, which could help him suppress it.

The ink is clear.It turned out that these vampire bats were fire bats, and when they sucked blood, they would infect their prey with fire poison.

If it were an ordinary person, being poisoned by fire might even endanger his life.But his physique is cold, and the fire poison can neutralize the coldness in his body.

In this way, this time he was a blessing in disguise?
Mo Li smiled helplessly, and after a while, the double Yin-Yang curse in his body gradually faded.

He opened his eyes, feeling a little dizzy at this moment, and looked down, only to see dense bats lying on his body, gobbling them up.

"Forget it, let's go." He sighed softly.

If you don't leave, I'm afraid you will go into shock due to excessive blood loss.

Thinking of this, Mo Li swept his sleeves away, and all the bats stuck to his body were immediately rolled away.

Mo Li felt a lightness on his body, and was about to get out of the cave, but he heard the sound of horseshoes approaching outside the cave, and then Baili Jiuge shouted: "Mo Li, are you in the cave?"

There was a slight panic at the bottom of the moon-like eyes, and Mo Li's heartstrings tightened.Nine songs?
He hurriedly replied, "Jiu Ge, I'm here. Wait for me outside, and I'll come out right away. The cave is dark, so don't go in."

When Baili Jiuge heard Mo Li's voice, her heart immediately calmed down. She dismounted and approached the entrance of the cave. Then, she heard a strange rustling sound.

This sound is...

"Mo Li, what's in the cave? I heard a strange sound, are you okay?" He was about to step in.

"Don't come in!" Mo Li yelled to stop, and when he heard Baili Jiuge gasp in doubt, he said softly, "Don't worry, wait a minute, I'll bring you a surprise."

"Surprise?" Baili Jiuge blinked, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Mo Li's gourd.

After a while, I saw Mo Li come out.He completely covered his clothes with a crane cloak, and large epiphyllum bloomed delicately under the shadow of the moon.

A sleeve protruded from under the crane cloak, revealing slender and beautiful hands, as if polished by jade.In that hand, he held a bright red fruit.

He asked softly: "Look at this fruit, it's actually red and the same color as your clothes. It's really rare. Why don't you take it as a souvenir? Do you like it?"

"Mo, Moli..." Baili Jiuge's voice trembled a little.In fact, compared to his gift, it held her heart more because he stood in front of her intact.

Mo Li smiled, and put the red fruit into Baili Jiuge's little hands.He just saw this fruit by chance in the cave. Fortunately, he stopped Jiuge from entering the cave thanks to this thing.

But immediately, Mo Li saw a look of astonishment in Baili Jiuge's eyes, as if there was still a little bit of fear.

He hurriedly asked, "Jiu Ge, what's wrong with you?"

"Mo Li..." Baili Jiuge raised his eyes and asked firmly: "Mo Li, did you find this fruit from the cave? Is there a lot of it? Besides this color, are there any blue ones? "

Both Mo Li and Yu Feng's expressions changed slightly, and Mo Li asked, "Jiu Ge, what's wrong?"

Baili Jiuge said: "When I was studying medicine with the senior ghost doctor, I saw this kind of fruit in the medical books written by him. There are red and blue. The red one is called corpse red fruit, and the blue one is called corpse blue fruit. It is a strange medicinal fruit that bears fruit by absorbing corpse energy."

"Corpse gas?" Yufeng couldn't help but whispered.

Mo Li's eyes suddenly brightened, he turned to look at the deep cave, and said slowly: "On a wall in the cave, there are many such fruits growing, indeed there are red and blue."

It was obviously summer, but Baili Jiuge felt the cold air was creeping into his sleeves, "The fruit grows on the cave wall, so that can only mean...it means that there are many, many corpses hidden behind the cave wall." The red corpse fruit and blue corpse fruit, each corpse can only bear one."

What kind of cave is this?
Baili Jiuge grabbed Mo Li's hand and said excitedly, "Mo Li, what are you doing in the cave! And why are there so many—"

"Nine Songs..."

Mo Li was about to speak, but stopped suddenly.He made a "hush" gesture, and his moon-like eyes flashed sharply, looking at the direction where Baili Jiuge and Yufeng came just now.

That direction, now, there are many people approaching, and Mo Li can feel the murderous intent lurking in the wind.

Yufeng was startled, and said in a low voice, "It's those people from Shanren Town who came after them."

Mo Li asked suspiciously: "People from Shanren Town?"

Baili Jiuge quickly said: "You don't know, Mo Li. That town has serious problems. Yufeng and I felt that we couldn't stay for long, so we abandoned the carriage and rode out to look for you. Now they are chasing us, what are we going to do?" manage?"

Mo Li didn't hesitate at all, and said calmly: "Yufeng, drive the horse."

"My subordinate understands."

After Yufeng got the order, he immediately picked up his sword and slapped the two horses' buttocks fiercely.

The beaten horse neighed loudly and galloped out crazily.Then the shouts of those people seemed to sound from a distance: "Over there! Follow the traces of the horseshoes!"

Baili Jiuge's heart trembled, knowing that Mo Li was trying to divert the tiger away from the mountain, but now they didn't even have a horse. They didn't expect that the journey back to Xiqi from Lanzhuang was not far away, and the journey was so embarrassing.

The body was gently hugged by Mo Li, he motioned to Yu Feng, and the two of them performed lightness kung fu, crossing the mountain wall, the swift shadows were like lightning, and they went in another direction...

They spent the whole night in the mountains.

Yufeng found another shallow but hidden cave, in case the pursuers would come back and continue searching, they didn't light the fire.

In the cave, Baili Jiuge leaned against Mo Li's arms, yawned, reached under the crane cloak, caressed Mo Li's chest, and said in surprise: "Mo Li, I think your body temperature is like It's warmed up a little bit."

"Yeah." He responded softly.

Baili Jiuge said: "Just now I asked you what you were doing in that cave, but you haven't answered me yet."

Mo Li thought for a while and replied: "There are some fire bats growing in that cave, and the fire bats have fire poison, which can just help me suppress some Yin-Yang spells."

"Fire bat?" Baili Jiuge has heard of this kind of thing. It is said that fire bats will poison their prey when they suck blood...

Baili Jiuge's expression changed, "The strange noise in the cave turned out to be swarms of bats! Mo Li, have you been sucked blood by so many bats?"

No wonder he covered the crane cloak so tightly, he didn't want her to see his wounds!

Baili Jiuge sneered: "How can you make fun of your own body like this, let me see your injuries!" Excited, he wanted to push off Mo Li's crane cloak.

"Jiu Ge, it's okay." Mo Li stopped her, held her tighter, and said softly: "It's just a small price paid, but the gain is far greater than the price. There are some flesh wounds, the wounds are small and insignificant."

"Mo Li..." Baili Jiuge felt sore in his heart, and after a moment of silence, he said: "After all, it is a temporary solution, not the root cause. I am afraid that your Yin-Yang curse will deteriorate again after a while."

"Silly Jiuge, go to sleep." Mo Li patted the back of Baili Jiuge's head, knowing in her heart that what she said was true.

This time, with the help of the fire poison of the fire bat, the raging Yin-Yang curse was suppressed, and even the lethality of the Yin-Yang curse was slightly reduced, but it was only temporarily.

Ying Chang'an has already said that he can live another year at most, so the best result is to live to [-] days...

This night passed peacefully.

It rained in the second half of the night, and when I woke up, the whole mountain was washed clean and pleasant.

The ground was slightly damp but not muddy, so Mo Li led Baili Jiuge out of the cave with Yufeng and the other three.

Before going to bed last night, Baili Jiuge had already told Mo Li everything that happened in Shanren Town.

Mo Li was so thoughtful, and after thinking about it carefully, he almost guessed the reason.

What is lacking now is evidence, an evidence that can prove that his deduction is correct.
